Photo of the Day (10/25/06)


Question – As travel photographers are we just suckers for children or are they really that cute? Seriously! I know I’ve taken a good handful of pictures of the foreign youngsters in the past. With most of my shots I always found extremely big bright eyes looking into the lens accompanied by goofy childish grins and giggles frozen in time. Here it feels like quite the opposite. We’ve got two very adorable young girls both sampling what looks like some overly delicious vanilla ice cream on cones. Neither seems interested in the camera and the one on the left looks more interested in her friend’s ice cream than her own. Very nice shot from vyxle taken in Japan and I love the fog in the background.

Photo of the Day (9/30/06)


This picture totally reminds me of My Favorite Martian for some very odd reason. Could it be all the three-eyed alien like figures? Hmm… Out of the Gadling Flickr pool – SunToad took this one almost a year ago at a Halloween celebration in Tokyo Disneyland. While it’s still rather early to think about Halloween I thought the glowing eyes and lights and overall cuteness of the creatures deserved a moment of fame. Besides it makes me think of traveling out of this world.
